Villainous Cao Cao: Inheriting Everything from the Chosen One

76: Leng Yue and Qin Bingyao drank together.Immediately, the two of them took out their wine to exchange.

”Adoptive Mother, here.” Cao Bu held Lu Chen’s blue sky yellow springs and handed it to Leng Yue.

Leng Yue raised her hand to take it, while Cao Bu smiled imperceptibly.

Tonight, he wanted to kill two birds with one stone.

Lu Chen also handed Cao Bu’s three drunken deep slumber brew to Qin Bingyao: ”Bing Yao, I’ve had this wine before; it’s just average. As for my wine, Leng Yue won’t be able to handle it.”

Qin Bingyao nodded and took the wine.

Seeing this, Elder Jin shouted, ”Please, drink together!”

Leng Yue and Qin Bingyao exchanged a glance and immediately drank it down.

Both were determined to get the moon soul crystal marrow and believed they could handle this single cup.

Almost the instant they drank it, both of them fell backward at the same time.

Seeing this, Cao Bu quickly supported Leng Yue: ”Adoptive Mother, are you alright?”

Receiving no response, Cao Bu was overjoyed.

Looking at the other side, Lu Chen was half a beat slow; just as he was about to catch Qin Bingyao, a wave of drunkenness suddenly surged, his feet faltered, and he fell straight down.

On Qin Bingyao’s side, a Maidservant who was closest caught her firmly at the last moment before she collapsed.

Lu Chen lay on the ground, his eyes unfocused.

He said in his heart, ”System, you’ve failed me.”

With those words, Lu Chen passed out drunk.

Inside Lu Chen’s body, the instant kill great emperor system fell into a long period of self-doubt.

It even suspected that Cao Bu was a True Immortal; otherwise, how could he withstand the blue sky yellow springs?

Seeing this scene, the smile on Cao Bu’s face could not be hidden at all.

”Everyone, I’m ashamed, truly ashamed.”

After saying that, he placed Leng Yue on her seat and began to collect the hundreds of Low Grade Sacred Artifacts on the table.

He was happy, not just because of the hundreds of Low Grade Sacred Artifacts he had gained, but also because he could stay up all night tonight.

Before long, Cao Bu tucked all the immortal sacred artifacts into his bag, which inevitably drew envious looks from the others.

To people from these Emperor-level forces, immortal sacred artifacts were actually not that much.

But having so many immortal sacred artifacts was something no Emperor-level force could claim to have.

With this, the Gu Clan’s foundation thickened by another layer.

They didn’t know that Cao Bu had no intention of giving these immortal sacred artifacts to the Gu Clan.

It was already good enough that he wasn’t greedy for the Gu Clan’s things; they wanted him to put treasures into the Gu Clan’s treasury? Not a chance.

”Elder Jin, shouldn’t the moon soul crystal marrow be given to me now?” After collecting the immortal sacred artifacts, Cao Bu walked up to Elder Jin.

Elder Jin looked at Cao Bu with a strange expression and handed over the moon soul crystal marrow somewhat unwillingly.

This moon soul crystal marrow was originally prepared for him by the Wine Emperor; who would have thought someone could actually win.

”Elder Jin, could you not hold it so tightly? This belongs to my Adoptive Mother.”

Cao Bu tried very hard but couldn’t take the moon soul crystal marrow from Elder Jin’s hand, so he finally had to use Leng Yue’s name.

Elder Jin glanced at the already drunk Leng Yue and, though very unwilling, let go.

”Kid, tell this old man how you did it, and I’ll give you a Low Grade Sacred Artifact.”

Cao Bu stuffed one of the Low Grade Sacred Artifacts into Elder Jin’s hand: ”Elder Jin, I’ll give you one, so stop asking.”

”Additionally, please arrange for someone to take my Adoptive Mother down to rest.”

”Also, where am I staying?”

Hearing this, Elder Jin sighed; it seemed this kid was unwilling to share his secret.

He weighed the Low Grade Sacred Artifact in his hand, the corner of his mouth curling slightly as he patted Cao Bu’s shoulder: ”You kid, you know how to conduct yourself.”

After saying that, he put away the Low Grade Sacred Artifact and shouted outside, ”Someone, take the guests down to rest.”

The next moment, a group of Maidservants rushed into the hall and helped all the drunken people out.

”Kid Cao, follow them. The Guest Welcoming Courtyard has many rooms; pick whichever one you like,” Elder Jin instructed.

Although he didn’t get the moon soul crystal marrow, he wouldn’t go as far as to resent Cao Bu.

Even if he forcibly kept it, the Wine Emperor wouldn’t let him off once he woke up.

Cao Bu nodded and pointed to Leng Yue: ”My Adoptive Mother...”

Elder Jin said, ”Don’t worry, the place where female cultivators stay isn’t far from you. It’s all women over there; nothing will happen.”

Cao Bu cupped his fists: ”Thank you.”

With that, he turned and followed them out.

Elder Jin looked at Cao Bu’s back and shook his head: ”Truly strange, to let an ant of the Heavenly Bridge Realm win.”

He said no more and had someone help the Wine Emperor back to his own room.

Cao Bu followed the Maidservants to the Guest Welcoming Courtyard and suddenly saw Qin Bingyao in the crowd.

After thinking carefully, Cao Bu probably guessed the reason.

Externally, the two were known as husband and wife, so staying in one room was perfectly reasonable.

Not long after, Cao Bu found a room and settled in.

It wasn’t until midnight that he stealthily went out.

He first went to check on Qin Bingyao’s side.

”System, will that kid Lu Chen wake up midway and intercept me?”

[Rest assured, Host. Even with the help of the instant kill great emperor system, it’s useless. When I say three days, it’s three days, regardless of cultivation level.]

Cao Bu breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn’t know how long the blue sky yellow springs would keep Leng Yue drunk; he had to hurry over.

Besides, he could gain inheritance points from Leng Yue, which was the most important thing.

After figuring it out, Cao Bu immediately walked toward the nearby Female Guest Courtyard.

Under the cover of his Thousand Illusions Formless Art.

Before long, he found the room where Leng Yue was staying.

He jumped over the low courtyard wall, leaped to the third floor with a light tap of his toes, and caught a glimpse of Leng Yue’s figure behind a corner window.

Immediately, he pushed open the partially closed window and flipped inside.

The candlelight in the room was dim; Leng Yue lay quietly on the brocade couch, deeply drunk.

She was dressed in a white robe, her figure clearly defined with a slender waist and long legs.

Her usually frost-cold face now had a faint blush; her long lashes were lowered, her lips slightly pursed, and her arrogance now held a rare touch of feminine charm.

Like a red plum blossom quietly blooming in the snow, she was impossible to look away from.

Cao Bu walked over slowly, only to see Leng Yue give a soft moan, showing signs of waking up.

He was so startled his heart leaped into his throat.

At the critical moment, he had a sudden inspiration and took out an ounce of three drunken deep slumber brew to pour into Leng Yue’s mouth.

Seeing her head tilt as she fell back into a deep sleep, Cao Bu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

”The wine I bought for ten thousand points is really not that great; she woke up in just an hour,” Cao Bu said with a hint of disdain.

He looked at Leng Yue on the bed, his eyes darkening as he explained in a low voice, ”Adoptive Mother, it’s not that Bu’er doesn’t know boundaries; it’s just that this wine is too strong. If no one is by your side to watch over you, I simply can’t feel at ease.”

[Ding! Congratulations Host, Inheritance Level increased by 2%, obtained 2 Lottery Chances.]

At noon the next day, sunlight shone obliquely through the window lattice onto the bed.

”Time to go meet that Empress.”

Cao Bu’s fingertips brushed past Leng Yue’s side, black and white spiritual light flowing, erasing the subtle traces left from last night.

After confirming no anomalies could be seen, he left through the window with satisfaction.

In Lu Chen and Qin Bingyao’s room, the candlelight had long since burned out.

Seeing the two on the couch still in the same positions they had fallen into last night, Cao Bu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He had intended to stay with Leng Yue for only a short while, but who would have thought he’d unknowingly spend several hours there.

He approached with light steps and saw a few strands of hair sticking to Qin Bingyao’s flushed cheeks.

Her originally tied-up long hair had come loose, spreading over the pillow.

The collar of the white Dragon-patterned Imperial Robe she wore was slightly open, losing some of its usual tidiness and gaining a bit of post-drinking languor.

Qin Bingyao’s eyes were tightly shut, her brow slightly furrowed, as if she carried some unease even in her sleep.

Her lips were slightly parted, and a portion of her calf was exposed beneath the hem of her robe, completely devoid of her usual majesty as a Supreme Sovereign.

As for Lu Chen next to her, he was sleeping like a dead pig, his snoring thundering through the air.
